There are some really good photos on that whole gallery. The two i like the most is the one from the rafters looking down on center ice during the moment of silence and then when the team saluted Rick Martin at the end of the game.....

i think RJ said it best: "He will be missed, but he will be remembered." Rest in peace, Rico

fan4life61 and I were together at that Thrashers game to see him skate, not knowing it would be the last time the French Connection would ever be together again

Here's the pic I took of the guys during the World Juniors...

It's just hard to stomach that they'll never be together again... Two thirds of the French Connection just doesn't feel right.

I was there too. I realized that and I'm just in shock. I got a picture of it too. It's pretty bad quality but I'm glad I'll have that picture and that memory forever. That game on the 23rd was also my little sister's first ever Sabres game. It's just crazy that I had the privilege to see the greatest line in franchise history to skate together for the last time.

Again, Rest in Peace Rick Martin.

I got the text from WGR while at work on Sunday and my jaw dropped. I still can't believe this has happened.

Rest in Peace, Rico.
